## Description

Islay Airport (IATA: ILY, ICAO: EGPI) at Glenegedale is the only airport on the Scottish whisky island of Islay, home to distilleries such as Ardbeg, Laphroaig, Bowmore and Lagavulin. Loganair operates daily ATR 42 turboprop services to Glasgow, carrying about 31,392 passengers in the 2024/25 financial year. There is no significant air freight: the island's whisky and general goods move overwhelmingly by road and Caledonian MacBrayne ferry from Kennacraig, not by air. For air cargo, Glasgow (GLA) is the nearest full freight airport. For forwarders, ILY is a passenger and lifeline-supply link rather than a cargo point.
